This is the most Sensitive topic for every person “deadline-single” 😀

Olivia said in her blog “The idea of getting married has been romanticised in movies and books. It soaks into the society as the topic of discussion in coffee shops and reception halls. The Internet is filled with postings after postings, describing how getting married equals reaching the end, blissful goal and it has more value among other things in a woman’s life – and if any woman is not getting married in certain age, by any means she hasn’t really achieved ‘it’.”

Kita umur sudah melewati usia perak, Ketika undangan perkawinan berdatangan, teman – teman sepantaran sudah mulai membentuk keluarga kecil, dan aku masih jingkrak – jingkrak kesana kemari, tidur sampai larut malam didepan aplikasi photoshop, atau masih kesana kemari les, belajar dan menghadiri seminar. We’ve been bombarded for all angles about married!

In that period of time, determined by society and All that, in which women are supposed to get married in order to guarantee the life that is “happily ever after”

Jujur, siapa yang tidak ingin menikah! tapi “TIME” belum memanggil, lalu aku harus bagaimana? terpuruk, meratap, bahkan memaksakan pernikahan dengan seseorang yang akan aku habiskan hidup bersamanya tanpa ada pembicaraan tentang masa depan dan deal-deal yang nanti akan memicu konflik dikemudian hari dan pada akhirnya aku yang menangis. Mengerti? You know there’s no perfect age to find a husband!

I am dominant? I am picky? or I am selfish? No.. I Choose my life, and I want to be happy the rest of my life!

Nowadays, women are changing the world!

Aku perempuan yang memiliki mimpi, aku perempuan yang ingin menjadi berguna, bermanfaat, bukan hanya untuk keluarga terdekatku, tetapi bagi orang lain. Tapi aku SAMA SEKALI tidak lupa dengan kodrat ku sebagai perempuan. I am home for my husband, I am angel to my future kids, and I am garden for my parents!

So, ketika banyak orang yang bertanya, aku hanya tertawa, dan meminta doa nya saja, Karena aku tau, ALLAH pasti memberikan sesuatu pada waktunya. cliché!So, sampai “TIME” nya nanti, aku akan memperbaiki diri, aku akan memperkaya diri dengan sesuatu yang bermanfaat.

Over and above that, getting married is not an achievement, but it is rather when the husband and wife walk side by side through sickness, in health, kids, financial stretches, and temptations. Marriage is an achievement when after the end of each other’s life, the husband and wife still look at each other and say that marrying each other is the best decision they have ever made in life. (Behind the curtain : Getting Married is (not) an Achievement- Olivia’s Blog)

Remember, Forever is too long to be unhappy! So.. do in rush! Take your time for yourself and let’s ALLAH take the rest. 🙂

Cheers ,
